Transformation of KYTC Maintenance Rating Program

KYTC’s Maintenance Rating Program (MRP) uses statistical measures to evaluate the condition of highway infrastructure as well as KYTC's performance. A customer survey determines which assets are measured and how they are weighted in the final score. In response to performance management and asset management receiving heightened scrutiny, this project will review current items on which data are collected as well as scoring targets. These will be compared to asset management and performance management initiatives. Data collection categories that the process would benefit from incorporating and potential adjustments to the scoring process which may accompany changes in data collection will be explored as well. The project will review how other state agencies integrate quality assurance programs into their performance management and/or asset management. Researchers will pay specific attention to condition assessment and inventory collection by asset class to identify asset needs, assist prioritization of maintenance activities, and prepare a business plan for the district and statewide levels.
